FULL TITLE: Michael Moore Thinks Donald Trump Wrote NYTimes Op-Ed Piece: “He’s the master of distraction, he wants us to believe there are adults in the room”

Michael Moore made the scary prediction that Donald Trump was “the last president of the United States” in the trailer to his new documentary “Fahrenheit 11/9,” which premiere in New York Thursday evening at Alice Tully Hall.

On the red carpet I asked the filmmaker exactly what he meant by that.

“It’s that we may not have our United States the way that we knew it. If he’s successful in dismantling our democracy than the United States of old is gone and that’s what I’m worried about.”

On a different tack he added, “In my perfect world on November 6 there will be a tsunami of women, young people, people of color, going to the polls. And they’re going to try and right a very huge wrong. I believe that.”

“Fahrenheit 11/9,” which premiered in Toronto to rapturous reviews, is a bookend of sorts to his hugely successful 2004 Bush-bashing film “Fahrenheit 9/11,” which became the highest grossing documentary of all time. But for all the pillorying and parodying of the president, Bush still went on to serve a second term. So does Moore think his new film, “Fahrenheit 11/9,” can make people vote for liberal candidates?

“Make, no. But I hope it can inspire people to do the right thing, can give them some optimism, can sometimes show them a way out. I hope that’s what Im doing in this film tonight, helping show people a way out of the madness that we’re in.”

I also speculated on Trump writing it and then faxing it from, say, the WH COS Fax number.

Ha! That Trump wrote the Times piece crossed my mind as well, and that he might have had a family member like Jared write it.

It would be funny if true.

President Trump is playing with them like a cat with a mouse. The only question is when will the cat get tired of the game and put an end to the mouse.

It’s that we may not have our United States the way that we knew it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That’s kind of the way I felt when both parties violated the Constitution and swore in the Kenyanesian Usurper and we endured eight years of his narcissistic blather while his cronies turned every agency of the government against US.

I agree with Moore on this one topic.
Our president can be quite a convincing actor.

"Michael Moore Thinks ...."


No he doesn't. If he ever perchanced to have a thought, it would die a slow and agonizing death from loneliness.
